7th September 2006 - Serious amateur videographers can enjoy superb High Definition picture quality with the first ever HDV camcorder featuring the revolutionary Sony-developed 3ClearVid CMOS Sensor system. Teamed with the camera’s superb Carl Zeiss® Vario-Sonnar T* 20x optical zoom lens, the new 3ClearVid sensor delivers High Definition pictures with exceptional resolution, purity and natural colour reproduction.
The new HDR-FX7E extends the benefits of 1080-line “full-HDV” shooting to a wide range of applications. Its HDMI interface allows digital connection of uncompressed High Definition video and audio signals to HD-ready televisions and other displays via a single cable. Recorded HDV video can be conveniently edited with a choice of available HDV non-linear editing software. Capturing widescreen 16:9 HDV 1080i video on standard MiniDV tapes, the HDR FX7E can also record and playback standard definition DV format signals.
40% smaller and 25% lighter than the first-generation HDR-FX1E, the HDR FX7E Handycam combines superb performance with a wide range of manual control functions and exceptional battery life.
